Here are a few things which come to mind.  First, when you move around a lot, make it meaningful.  Don’t just move for the sake of moving.  Use appropriate gestures/movements to illustrate the point you are making.  Second, use lots of vocal variety – volume and pitch.  Go in with a positive attitude – one of having fun and entertaining those professors with all your knowledge.   See how much you can make biochemistry sound like the most fun thing on the planet J  Be enthusiastic as you are presenting.  And remember to smile and look confident, even if you aren’t feeling quite that way inside.

Before I give talks, I always practise doing them several times on my own, in the way I plan to do them on the actual day – including all the vocal variety, body language etc, in front of an imaginary audience.  I find this really helps, so you might like to give that a go too.

I wish you well – let us know how it goes.
